4.Dover Shore Excursion:Post-Cruise Tour to London via Canterbury and Leeds Castle

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 62 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $210.35

Dover to London by executive coach, with guided Canterbury and included Leeds Castle. Door-to-door drop off at Heathrow or hotels.

“A nice tour but I think more time should have been spent at Canterbury rather than Leeds castle. Canterbury town was cute and I would have liked more time to explore. One item - I paid extra funds for us to be dropped off at our hotel. We were moved from the tour bus to a small van. Six adults (rather large men) was way too many. It was an uncomfortable ride for 90 minutes. I was not happy. Terrible end to a decent tour day.”

Portland cruise excursion to Stonehenge UNESCO and Salisbury Cathedral, with round-trip air-conditioned coach and a free audio app. Tickets extra.

“It would be very helpful if the tour company told us what company we were traveling with and how to find the right bus (color or a sign in the window). I talked to the company by phone and she told us to head left When we found the bus it was to the right and starting to leave. Once we found our bus, things improved and the tour was a nice experience .”

The tour guide was excellent- he spoke at length about the area and its history which was very informative. Lots of comfort stops along the way. Wales was beautiful, I plan to return one day.”
